Lemonade Stand Tips
Follow these tips for sweet success at your lemonade stand!

Attract attention to your lemonade stand with fresh fruit, big colorful signs or flowers. Print our free banner, below, to get you started and don’t forget to make a few pitchers of our Old Fashioned Lemonade.

A lemonade stand doesn’t have to be just for lemonade. Make double the sweet sales with delicious home-baked treats like our Lemonade Cupcakes.

Serve your lemonade in fun, patterned cups, give out straws and have plenty of napkins. Be earth-friendly, too, by using paper-only products and keeping a recycling bin by your stand. Colorful cups calls for a colorful lemonade recipe like our Minty Strawberry Lemonade.

A lemonade stand can be a child’s first experience at entrepreneurship. Use this this as a teachable moment, have grade school kids calculate costs to make the lemonade, plus predict a profit. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to raise money for a charity, like Bake Sale for No Kid Hungry™, so you may want to have a donation jar instead of a set price. Keep prices modes and, most importantly, have fun!

Set up your lemonade stand with a variety of lemonade flavors: Pink Lemonade, a Sparkling Lemonade or maybe a Zesty Orange Lemonade. See which one sells out first. Be sure to keep plenty of ice on hand, you can even set the pitchers in a bowl of ice to keep them cooler, longer.
